Avoid greenwashing, and follow regulations and guidelines for sustainable marketing claims.

Aimed at beauty professionals who want to follow the changes in terms of green marketing claims, create responsible communication messages about sustainability and their sustainable products or services.

What are green claims and how can they be defined? What is the scope of Environmental, Sustainable or Green claims? What are the building blocks that make up a claim?

The world of sustainability and marketing claims is full of grey areas. What exactly is a green claim? What can you do to avoid greenwashing, how do you follow the guidelines and regulations and how can you get around setbacks? In this article, you'll learn the basics of green claims: why companies use them, how exactly you can make them and strategies to overcome common challenges.

Intro to the chapter - HERE

Clean beauty and Zero waste claims: content on the sustainable marketing of green products. It explores what consumers can understand from the messages, how they can be communicated with, and how companies can make their claims meaningful to customers. The course will help you understand what consumers want to hear about your green product and shows you how to avoid greenwashing in your efforts to become a true environmentally-friendly beauty brand.

Our Green Claims Lexicon

COMING SOON

Beauty packaging is a sensorial, emotional business, and we will look at how packaging can keep its premium feel and delight consumers while using more sustainable components. We have interviewed Experts, but also Packaging Manufacturers, Recyclers and Collectors, Materials suppliers, and Brands who’ve already made bold moves. Showing what is practically achievable today, but also the trade-offs you will have to make. The content will cover packaging material categories (recycled and non-recycled) already used or potentially used in the beauty industry (hair-care, make-up, skincare, perfume, etc) for primary packaging, but also secondary packaging, sampling, accessories and gifting. This module will put you in control of your packaging decisions and help you substantiate your sustainable packaging claims.
